- Default characteristics of border
- WLanguage properties that can be used with the Border type
- Type of line for the border
Border (Variable type) In french: Cadre
The Border type is used to handle a border programmatically. The characteristics of this border can be modified by several WLanguage properties. A Border type can be used: - in the controls of a report (Border property).
- in the drawing functions (dBorder).
 in Excel cells (Border property of cells in an Excel document). - in the paragraphs of a Word Processing document (Border property on the layout options of docParagraph variables).
Note: For more details on the declaration of this type of variable and the use of WLanguage properties, see Declaring a variable.
MonCadre is Border
MonCadre.Color = LightRed
MonCadre.Thickness = 5
NumNbPage.Cadre = MonCadre
NumNbPage.Cadre.Epaisseur = 1
MonCadre2 is Border = NumNbPage.Cadre
MyBorder is Border
MyBorder.Color = LightRed
MyBorder.Thickness = 5
NumNbPage.Border = MyBorder
NumNbPage.Border.TopLeftCorner.Width = 2
NumNbPage.Border.TopLeftCorner.Height = 3
Remarks Default characteristics of border By default, a border found in a report has the following characteristics: - thickness set to 0. The border is visible if the thickness is greater than 0. The border is invisible if the thickness is set to 0.
- black.
- solid line.
- no rounded corners.
- all the border edges are displayed.
To define the characteristics of a border through programming, use the border properties. WLanguage properties that can be used with the Border type The following properties can be used to define the characteristics of Border variables. | | | | Property name | Type used | Effect |
|---|
| BottomLeftCorner | | Characteristics of the lower-left corner: - property width: width of frame corner (real).
- property Height: height of frame corner (real).
Not supported in XLS cells. | | BottomRightCorner | | Characteristics of the lower-right corner: - property width: width of frame corner (real).
- property Height: height of frame corner (real).
Not supported in XLS cells. | | Color | Integer | Border color. This color can correspond to:This property can be used: - In modification: the color of all edges is modified.
- In read mode, this property returns:
- the color of the borders if all the borders have the same color.
- the ColorUndefined constant if all the borders do not have the same color.
| | Edges | Integer constant | Returns and modifies the presence of edges. This property can correspond to a combination of the following options:- EdgeNo: frame has no edge.
- BordBas: the frame has a low edge.
- Straight edge: the frame has a straight edge.
- Left edge: the frame has a left edge.
- High edge: the frame has a high edge.
- EdgeAll: all frame edges are displayed.
| | Line | Integer constant | Returns and modifies the type of line for the border (see the next paragraph).- In edit mode, modifies the type of line for all borders.
- In read mode, returns:
- the type of line for the borders if this parameter is identical for all borders.
- the TypeUndefined constant if all the borders do not have the same line.
| | LineBottom | | Characteristics of the bottom line: - property Color: Line color: This color can correspond either to an RGB color (obtained with the RGB function), or to a preset color.
- Property Thickness (Real): Line thickness (in millimetres in printouts and in pixels in graphics functions).
- Property Type (constant of type Integer): Line type (see next paragraph).
Not supported in XLS cells. | | LineLeft | | Characteristics of the left line: - property Color: Line color: This color can correspond either to an RGB color (obtained with the RGB function), or to a preset color.
- Property Thickness (Real): Line thickness (in millimetres in printouts and in pixels in graphics functions).
- Property Type (constant of type Integer): Line type (see next paragraph).
Not supported in XLS cells. | | LineRight | | Characteristics of the right line: - property Color: Line color: This color can correspond either to an RGB color (obtained with the RGB function), or to a preset color.
- Property Thickness (Real): Line thickness (in millimetres in printouts and in pixels in graphics functions).
- Property Type (constant of type Integer): Line type (see next paragraph).
Not supported in XLS cells. | | LineTop | | Characteristics of the top line: - property Color: Line color: This color can correspond either to an RGB color (obtained with the RGB function), or to a preset color.
- Property Thickness (Real): Line thickness (in millimetres in printouts and in pixels in graphics functions).
- Property Type (constant of type Integer): Line type (see next paragraph).
Not supported in XLS cells. | | Round | Real | Value of rounding for the corners. Corresponds to the radius of rounding. - In modification, modifies the rounding of all corners.
- In read mode, returns:
- the width and the height of corners if these parameters are identical for all corners.
- the RoundingUndefined constant if all the corners do not have the same width and height.
Not supported: - in the XLS cells.
- in the prargraphs of Word Processing documents.
| | Thickness | Real | Returns and modifies the thickness of the border (in millimeters in the prints and in pixels in the graphic functions). - In edit mode, changes the thickness of all the borders.
- In read mode, returns:
- the thickness of the borders if the parameter is the same for all the borders.
- the ThicknessUndefined constant if all the borders do not have the same thickness.
Not supported in XLS cells. | | TopLeftCorner | | Characteristics of the upper-left corner: - property width: width of frame corner (real).
- property Height: height of frame corner (real).
Not supported in XLS cells. | | TopRightCorner | | Characteristics of the upper-right corner: - property width: width of frame corner (real).
- property Height: height of frame corner (real).
Not supported in XLS cells. |
These properties can be used: - on the Border variable. Example:
MyBorder is Border
MyBorder.Color = LightRed
MyBorder.Thickness = 5
- or on the Cadre property of the manipulated element.
NumNbPage.Border.Thickness = 1
Note: It is also possible to assign the characteristics of a programmed frame directly to an element:
MyBorder is Border
MyBorder.Color = LightRed
MyBorder.Thickness = 5
NumNbPage.Border = MyBorder
Type of line for the border The Type property is used to define and get the type of line of the border. The available constants are as follows (caution: the effect of these constants will differ when the border is used in a report or when it is used for a cell in an Excel document). | | | | | Constant | Effect in Excel | Effect in a report | Effect in dBorder | | LineNone | No line. | No line. | No line. | | LineSolid | | with the thickness defined in millimeters. | | | LineSolidThick | | with the thickness defined in millimeters. | | | LineSolidMedium | | with the thickness defined in millimeters. | | | LineDouble | | with the thickness defined in millimeters. | | | LineDotAndDash | | with the thickness defined in millimeters. | | | LineDotAndDashMedium | | with the thickness defined in millimeters. | | | LineDotAndDashDoubleDash | | with the thickness defined in millimeters. | | | LineDotAndDashDoubleDashMedium | | with the thickness defined in millimeters. | | | LineDotted | | with the thickness defined in millimeters | | | LineDottedMedium | | with the thickness defined in millimeters | | | LineDash | | with the thickness defined in millimeters. | | | LineDashMedium | | with the thickness defined in millimeters. | |
